Royal Mail Surveys rewarded with Stamps.

TNS have always said that the DAY you post is the most important element. I try to keep to the actual schedule but if I find that it does not fit in with my route that day I do occasionally post in a PB rather than at the PO & there has never been a problem. Probably because I know that the collection from the PB will end up at the sorting office at the same time as that from the PO!

I agree, and that's what I do.
But when you get people like a certain PPRd poster telling us all it's ok to post wherever/whenever you feel like it (albeit on the same day) with no attempt to ever stick to the schedule ref times or PO vs PB, then it does make a mockery of the whole thing.

Been doing this for a very short while and wondering whether its worth the effort.

How many things can you get delivered in 1 week? This week I've had about 6 things and have about 14 smarts!
I've 4 things to post this week, some before midday, some after, some at post office etc. :rotfl:

It varies from week to week but 6 delivered and 4 to post seems a fair average in my experience.
Have you checked online whether they are requesting the return of the smarts - this is usually updated on Thursday evening.

Hi Ann, I have never seen R0000
Is there a SMART with it. Not getting your hopes up it might be Gold SMART if so it will say on it. If it is GOLD they you have won £100 if not come down to earth.

Or

is this a mag or newspaper like Spectator or Methodist. If so you need to tick box Click if no R number found. Then you will be taken to next screen where you can select the mag received. If there are more than 1 then make sure you select with the date on the mag not the date received or another. Continue and at some point they will ask you to confirm a number which will have 360 or extra 0's.... that should be it....

Ha ha no its not a gold smart... it's a label with a R0000 on it. The ones I received last week had numbers after the R but this doesn't. It says to record the information. Just a little confused sorry.

I've just dug out the remains of a label sheet from my recent training period, R0000 goes on the items you send to West Brom.

You say its on a label, can you be clear, has it arrived in a stamped [paper] envelope from the postman (single item) or in a plastic envelope on a sticky label sheet with a printed posting plan and a couple unsealed envelopes to make up, or with other things?

Sorry if this is teaching you to suck eggs but it seems somewhat odd to me having done this a few times now.

Hi yes it came in a grey plastic envelope with the sticky labels and a white envelope and a jiffy bag with stamps on. It was the same as last week but they had numbers on them that I could enter not all zeros. Do i not enter these? Sorry to sound dumb.

Apologies... I have just checked my previous items and there was only a R number when I received the smart.....durr..... I am so dumb. Thanks to everyone replying. Just still getting used to this.
